Method

1. Steep the teabag in 400ml boiling water for 5 mins. Lift out the teabag and chill the tea for a few hrs or overnight.

2. Add a couple of handfuls of ice to a large jug. Add a few cucumber ribbons.

3. Pour in the tea, ginger beer and lemonade. Add the balsamic vinegar. Gently stir everything together. Let the drink sit for 5 mins so the flavours can infuse, then serve in glasses with more ice, cucumber ribbons and a few raspberries.

4. To turn this into a Hardy Gardener’s Cup, add a shot of gin to each glass before pouring in the punch.
